He's a high level technical fellow as far as I know but he's also 83. I suspect his involvement these days, if any, is purely advisory to a limited group of core NT kernel and RDOS engineers.

It's becoming acceptable to people because many people increasingly feel their means for change are being suppressed or their voices ignored. This kind of violence is just the beginning. It's what happens when societies start to c

I got in an argument with an accessibility engineer about this recently... The whole UI as branding thing has utterly killed usability.

Judges order means nothing if the executive branch decides not to enforce it and the legislature won't hold the executive accountable. I am honestly surprised we took so long to get to this failure mode of our system of government.

Why do you need to understand how the code or software works if the thing the AI generates satisfies the requirements? That's where we are headed.

Here's the rub tho, you can still end up getting sued if for example you acted with gross negligence. An example I'd use here is you move somebody from a car wreck and injure them even further rather than waiting a few minutes for

Sort of, but it won't be framed that way. It will just be "we achieved our objectives and we're moving on"

OpenAI has a huge feud with Elon Musk. Microsoft detaching itself from OpenAI and exploring partnerships with xAI among others makes a lot of sense as the card deck shuffles and more power and influence is concentrated near those in the goo

It's pretty clear the obvious objective is to cripple the economy and buy up the losers for pennies on the dollar then also use government money as the carrot to compel surviving companies and local governments to adopt policies that a

Your body, your choice. At least with cigarettes there was a public nuisance argument because of the smell and also the secondhand effect. I dont find general public health a compelling argument for restricting sugar.

I code a little but largely on the periphery of stuff so as to not be in the critical path. I try to fix small bugs snd keep up with the code base but with nine reports I've got much other work to do.

Those were wars to kill big scary Communism! Things have changed a bit since then. No comment on Korea, but Vietnam wasn't exactly popular.

Anyone who thought we would seriously defend Taiwan is a fool. Middle America routinely makes fun of Asian people, you think they're gonna be happy to send their kids to die for them?

You write code to do these things? If there's a requirement for you to be able to do such a thing make it a feature, implement it with tests and voila, no different than any other feature or bug you work on is it?

I ditched Terraform years ago and just interact with the raw cloud provider SDKs now. It's much easier to long-term evolve actual code and deal with weird edgecases that come up when you're not in beholden to the straight jacket t

The G3 were cool in a different way. I miss the playful coloring of late 90s devices. Computers grew up but did we also need our game consoles to become soulless rip offs of Apple industrial design? Edit: I want a translucent atomic purple
